Why would I get WARNING] can't find node_modules/shadow-cljs/cli/dist/shadow.cljs.npm.transform.js, please install npm install --save-dev shadow-cljs. even after I’ve run the npm install command?

looks like either have an ancient global install or ancient project install of shadow-cljs

that file hasn't existed for quite a while

That’s very possible. How to clean up?

global de-install and stick to project-only install?

project-only install means you must always run through npx shadow-cljs ...

if you are ok with that you don't need the global install at all

the global install will use the project install if its a compatible version

which it usually is ... just not if they are too far apart

What’s the cleanest way to remove the binary at /usr/local/bin/shadow-cljs so I don’t have a conflict?

npm uninstall -g shadow-cljs seems like it works but the binary is still there

And I don’t want to just delete it, that’s sloppy

check out where it is actually from

which shadow-cljs or so

maybe you installed it via yarn?

ah, ok. Let’s see…

It’s acting like it removed it, but the binary is still there… :thinking_face:

just look at the file

is it a symlink? is it a bash script calling some other path?

must be from somewhere

Ah, ok. You’re right, it’s a symlink to a yarn install. But I just removed that, I thought…

I didn’t see a ‘global’ flag on yarn remove…. I’ll look again

yarn global remove

Ah, it’s a prefix….

Bingo!

I’m almost there… I’m extracting the luminus shadow config into a standalone config….

It’s complaining about `com/cognitect/transit.js:649:8  variable module is undeclared`

Is that a dev dependency I need?

thats just a warning. you can ignore that.

Hmm.. my hot reloading has disappeared….

I’m running in CIDER, and it worked when it was all in one project.clj… let me stash my changes and confirm that…

https://code.thheller.com/blog/shadow-cljs/2019/08/25/hot-reload-in-clojurescript.html

All fixed. A fresh start of emacs and cider did the trick….

So what issues will I have if my src files are separated by extension?

The manual says ‘harder to use’

your choice. if you like doing it then do it. I'm assuming you are talking about src/clj and src/cljs?

Correct

The last piece I’m working on today is how to get ‘env/dev/cljs’ in the source path for dev, and ‘env/prod/cljs’ for prod given that :source-paths are global and there can be only one.

must use lein or deps.edn if you need that

not supported by shadow-cljs.edn
